In the mid century period sculpture and form took on a real
new importance in interior design. For most of the previous five centuries
artistic expression was predominantly paintings and two dimensional art
The future was aloft. Buoyancy was a recurring design element
as things were being removed from their connections to the ground. This sculpture is a great example of this new lofty design ethos.
Here, abstract profiles of birds are suspended in the air by wire.
The material is a magnificent rosewood, that was trending at this time
and added warmth and earthiness to an abstract design.
This type of art was exported from Scandinavia, where woodcarving
had found a new resurgence in the postwar period
and was blended with a new minimalism and abstraction that
lends to these sculptures the priceless elegance of simplicity.The form is superb and this piece is the sort mid century moderns
craved to adorn their credenzas, bookshelves and side tables.
Guests seeing these sort of works of art immediately
knew that their host was not old fashioned or coveting colonial
furnishings, but was a contemporary person and was
fully up to date in their thinking and outlook.
It\'s hard to imagine that a sculpture could say so much
about its owner, but it can and does. Today, perhaps more than ever,
these mid century pieces reflect the passion for superb design
which has waned considerably as the decades have passed.This sculpture is a magnificent addition to your living spaces
and adds that wonderful authentic mid century design and style
that simply can\'t be duplicated. In great condition with normal age wear to the carved rosewood
and the metal rods. Absolutely beautiful!
